Ether 2:16

And the Lord said:

Go to work and build, after the manner of barges which ye have hitherto built.

And it came to pass that the brother of Jared did go to work, and also his brethren,

and built barges after the manner which they had built,

according to the instructions of the Lord.

And they were small, and they were light upon the water,

even like unto the lightness of a fowl upon the water.

Ether 2:17

And they were built after a manner that they were exceedingly tight,

even that they would hold water like unto a dish;

and the bottom thereof was tight like unto a dish;

and the sides thereof were tight like unto a dish;

and the ends thereof were peaked;

and the top thereof was tight like unto a dish;

and the length thereof was the length of a tree;

and the door thereof, when it was shut, was tight like unto a dish.

Ether 2:20

And the Lord said unto the brother of Jared:

Behold, thou shalt make a hole in the top,

and also in the bottom;

and when thou shalt suffer for air

thou shalt unstop the hole and receive air.

And if it be so that the water come in upon thee,

behold, ye shall stop the hole,

that ye may not perish in the flood.

Ether 2:22

And he cried again unto the Lord saying:

O Lord, behold I have done even as thou hast commanded me;

and I have prepared the vessels for my people,

and behold there is no light in them.

Behold, O Lord, wilt thou suffer that we shall cross this great water in darkness?
